<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Over 160 food activities to help young children develop early science and literacy skills.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Making learning exciting for children, <i>Incredible Edible Science</i> includes over 160 hands-on, food-based science activities with a strong literacy connection. The book provides everything needed to teach important science process skills in a safe, developmentally appropriate way. These cross-curricular activities promote brain development and fully engage children through physical involvement--such as exploring balance and texture as they create popcorn ball structures, classifying and patterning different types of cereal, and investigating fractions with biscuits--and participation in literacy and language components such as phonemic awareness, vocabulary development, and following directions. After the activity is complete, children can eat their work!</p><br><i>Incredible Edible Science</i> received the <i>Learning</i> Magazine 2011 Teachers' Choice Award.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Liz Plaster, MEd, is a 30-year veteran early childhood professional.
